After being reborn I make up my mind to stop chasing after my husband and daughter novel Chapter 205

The moment reached my door, I couldn’t hold back my tears anymore, I could see just how much my parents were hurting. Yvonneused to be so close

to them.

She’d spend every winter and summer break at their place. Now, she wouldn’t even see them. They must be feeling so heartbroken.

I cried quietly for a while, and then came to terms with it. This was just a phase, and sooner or later, we’d get through it.

My parents seemed to know I was hurting as well, so they just stopped mentioning Yvonne in front of me.

I kept going to work asual. By the third day, my parents were getting a bit restless, and with their vacation almost over, I bought them plane tickets and saw them off at the airport mysell

During that time, Jared’s parents treated my parents to dinner once. Not sure what they discussed, but when my parents came back, they told me that they respected my choice. Honestly, that really reassured me and gave me the strength I needed.

“Victoria, if you ever need somewhere to go after the divorce, just come home. You can always find something steady here,” my mom said, squeezing my fingers:

“She’s gotten used to living in the city. She might not fit in back home anymore. It’s up to her,” my dad chimed in.

I nodded to them.” know. I’m not a kid anymore. I’ll be fine.”

Aber seeing my parents off, I headed back to the office. As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, Theard laughter drifting from the meeting room.

A voice sounded, “Amy, is it really that far away? Is it really dangerous? You actually went exploring in deserted caves? That’s so cool! When I grow up, want to be just the you.”

“Really? You’ve climbed snowy mountains? And your biggest dream is to conquer Everest? That’s the tallest one in the world)”

When I walked into my office, I saw a little flower made out of toy blocks sit handwriting: [Mom, I’m sorry. Here’s a flower for you.

I stared at it for a long while. Then, I gently moved it aside so I could get back to work. Emotions were just part of being human, but they could really

Back when Yvonne would show a little gratitude and give me something, it would’ve made my file day.

But now, I was forcing myself to shove those feelings down. When i thought about everything I’d done for her, it just left me feeling numb inside.

I couldn’t help but suspect Jared had Yvonne bring me this little present, hoping it’d spark some motherly feelings I barely had left. Gotta admit, Jared

really knew how to pull people’s strings..

But for someone who had already stared death in the face, kindness was a fatal weakness. Keeping my heart hard–that was just how my life worked

now.

My office door was gently pushed open, and Yvonne cautiously poked her head in. She didn’t say a word, just kept stealing glances at me. I treated her The she was invisible.

Wonne waited for a while, and when I still didn’t call her over, she started to get a little sulky, in the end, she quietly closed the door

“Get out. Don’t bother me while I’m working” I said coldly.

Wenne suddenly burst into tears. Then she threw the door open and ran out.
